and maybe in this short presentation (source) is the answer to WHY Jeff Koons in VERSAILLES (Very Personnal Comment from the redaction!!) " The world’s most expensive artist will show works in one of the world’s most lavish exhibition spaces next year, Agence France-Press reports. In his first major French museum show, Jeff Koons will exhibit 12 to 15 of his large-scale works at the Palace of Versailles, Marie Antoinette’s legendary former palace outside Paris.

The Palazzo Grassi and Versailles are connected in that Versailles president Jean-Jacques Aillagon is the former manager of Pinault’s museum. The exhibition is slated for September 26 through December 14, 2008, and the show is an extension of the palace’s "Versailles Off" program that puts temporary contemporary art exhibitions on the Versailles grounds. ...

highly recommended...It was a treat to be able to listen to the artist at the opening. I had my eyes on this artist since my friend told me about a show I should go and see: Ellen Frank showed at Concordia College Bronxville At that time, I didn't take the time to go and see the exhibit .And I happen to like very much this current gallery TRIA where you're really welcome ( not a quality for most of those Chelsea Galleries where no one is even saying hello behind those high counters,......) well, Personal taste and experiences,.......
